Ksenia--

You're looking for a list of paragraph style names in a specific document--to get that, you need to iterate through the list of paragraph styles, add the name of each style to a list, and then use that list to populate the dropdown control.

I think this example will make things a bit more clear:



//DropdownExample.js 
//Get a list of the paragraph style names from the active document (for use in the dialog box). 
var myStyleNameList = new Array(); 
for(myStyleCounter = 0; myStyleCounter < app.activeDocument.paragraphStyles.length; myStyleCounter++){ 
	myParagraphStyle = app.activeDocument.paragraphStyles.item(myStyleCounter); 
	if(myParagraphStyle.name != "[No paragraph style]"){ 
		myStyleNameList.push(myParagraphStyle.name); 
	} 
} 
//Create the dialog box. 
var myDialog = app.dialogs.add({name:"Dropdown Example"}) 
with(myDialog.dialogColumns.add()){ 
	with(dialogRows.add()){ 
		staticTexts.add({staticLabel:"Paragraph Styles:"}); 
		var myDropDown = dropdowns.add({stringList:myStyleNameList, selectedIndex:0}); 
	} 
} 
//Show the dialog box. 
var myResult = myDialog.show(); 
if(myResult == true){ 
	//Get the selected paragraph style name. 
	var myParagraphStyleName = myStyleNameList[myDropDown.selectedIndex]; 
	//Remove the dialog from memory. 
	myDialog.destroy(); 
	alert("You selected: " + myParagraphStyleName); 
}	 
else{ 
	//Remove the dialog from memory. 
	myDialog.destroy(); 
}



Thanks,
